HKS Hipermax 3 questions.

I'm just wondering, does the hks hipermax 3 needs the upper cone mount from the stock shocks/springs on the rear? thanks

I don't think there is a coilover or shock out there that doesn't require you to swap the tops on the rear. It really is very easy if you have to there is a thread in the DIY that explains how

thanks guys... ... btw... (@bumblebeerx8) my stance, and megan racing coilovers didn't need the upper cone mount... ... that sucks cuz my dum**ss threw the stock strut away because my front passenger stock struts are leaking oil, so i figured they're shot... ... currently rockin a cheapy megans right now, and planning to get hks hipermax 3 when i get my tax return... ... guess not...

Never fear, Jedi is here!

get them anyways, I'm sure you can get those replacement parts super cheap and still make it worthwhile.

it's mad jdm tyte y0 to use zip ties.



all kidding aside: the zipties are to help you mount the adjustment cables in the trunk.
